Crane Reliability Analysis

Unfortunately, cranes have finite service life which is determined based around if it is meeting your production demands or if it has deteriorated over time; which is why people have a crane reliability analysis completed in order to determine how long the crane will remain reliable for before it starts to fail. This planning process can range from deciding on a crane modernization, investing in a PM program or even when starting to look into buying a new crane.

When we complete a Crane Reliability Analysis there are several things which we observe including the following:

The production and operating environment of your crane
The overall condition of the cranes' structures and components which is then used to determine the safety, productivity, usability and to determine the remaining design life
We will then interview the operators and maintenance personnel and review all pertinent documentation
After this, we will provide you with a detailed report which will go into detail about any maintenance, modernizations and or replacements you should start to look into

Overall a crane reliability analysis is an ideal way to determine the state of your crane in order to help you plan your future usage and expenses regarding your crane.
